Clark Manning

    Charles Manning Hope Clark explored the relationship between European values and the Australian continent. His extensive work examines the destiny of the Australian nation from its beginnings through the early 20th century. Central to his writing were considerations of religious and Enlightenment thought, alongside the tragedy of the Indigenous population. Clark sought to provoke Australians into questioning national myths and reconsidering historical narratives.
